In this lesson

build a capability map and heat map from interviews. Prepares ARC-002-LAB1.

Draft outline details

Step by step

  1. Collect source material: annual report extract, org chart, three interview notes.
  2. Draft L1 domains and L2 capabilities on a whiteboard; reconcile names.
  3. Rate maturity and strategic importance per capability with evidence.
  4. Color the heat map and highlight three hot spots (click-and-collect, stock accuracy, returns).
  5. Planned mistake: the first draft mirrors the org chart (one box per department). Fix: regroup by what the business does and merge duplicated capabilities.
  6. Validate with role-played business owners; note disagreements.
